• A rare record of two of the most popular icons of the 1950s and 60s performing together: Frank Sinatra and Elvis Presley
• Also features Sammy Davis Jr, Peter Lawford, Joey Bishop, Nancy Sinatra, the Nelson Riddle Orchestra, Leona Irwin and the Tommy Hansen Dancers
In 1957 Timex sponsored a series of TV Variety Show Specials starring Frank Sinatra broadcast on The ABC Television Network. The last in the series taped on 12 May 1960 in Miami, was perhaps the best of all, featuring Elvis Presley, upon completion of his National Service.
This video, remastered from the archive tape of the broadcast programme, is the original show in its entirety including the sponsor’s promotional segments. Whilst the quality of reproduction does not meet modern technological standards, it is a rare record of two of the most popular performers of the Twentieth Century performing together.
